This urban route offers a taste of what can be found in the inner suburbs of Paris: lively streets; markets; old townhouses; state schools; post-war buildings in varying states of repair; more recent tower blocks; old workshops and a few factories still in place; green spaces; rapidly changing neighbourhoods. Add to that a stroll through the famous flea market, a lovely view of the Seine, and a brief glimpse of the legendary Stade Bauer.

Until the advent of the railway, fishmongers brought fish to Paris from the ports of the North Sea and the English Channel in horse-drawn convoys.
